Got it! Thanks so much!

Hello, I just found this thread and have been reading with great interest. But I am confused about one thing. What does it mean when you have a “-“ sign before an option, i.e., -p950 and -850 straddles? Does that mean these positions are losing money?

CNBC did a short segment on Jonas’ note this morning. It was a positive piece with video of Optimus picking up an egg from an egg carton and moving it to an appliance using its fingers. It also showed the dancing bots.

What is TR on the y axis, please?

Thank you, very helpful!

I am not buying it, he is, and probably could not swing a new car purchase. How many miles can he expect to get out of a M3? Thank you for your advice.

Hello. My son is looking to purchase his first car, and wants a Tesla. He found a 2019 M3 LR with 70k miles for $26k. Does this seem like a fair price? He works remotely and does not drive a lot. If this is not appropriate for this forum let me know where to post it, please.

Please don’t jinx!!

Can we project a share price from this, if the market applies a 20 or 30 multiple? (Stupid question probably but I don’t know how to do this)

Sad, if true. Pretty is very subjective; I personally don’t care for the humpiness of the MY but I love the look of my RAV4. It seems to me that success of the mission to accelerate the adoption of EV’s would be served by a variety of looks and styles to appeal to a variety of people. It...

In for a whopping 10 shares, woohoo!

Nice to see you back here!

They had to throw a curve ball….

Well said! It’s total freedom without compromise!

Hertz heavily promotes Tesla from the counter. In a case like that, or if they are out of other cars, the renter would not have time to prepare. I recently rented a car from Hertz, a one-way rental to help my daughter move. When I got there they did not have the car I rented and they tried to...

Further to your Hertz comment, people often have time constraints when on vacation and don’t want to use the time to learn how to drive a new car. So a Hertz rental may not be a good fit for vacationers.

I agree that any advertising should aim to dispel all the misinformation that has become deeply ingrained due to constant repetition of the MSM. I belong to an online group of women over a certain age who travel solo. Conversations sometimes turn to car rentals and specifically Tesla rentals...

Totally agree, I would love a smaller hatchback. And there’s a market for it, look at Rav-4 and CRV.

I first invested in 2019, well before the first split. But seeing the ATH in the rear view mirror is still sad to me, no matter when I bought. As far as holding forever, I am certainly a LT HODLR. But I am getting old and thoughts turn to funding a retirement. Also, I would like to own one of...

Yes, this approach seems reasonable. What is SAAS, please?

True! But sad.

Wow, I didn’t realize that Cathie had updated her projections. I will go look at that. Thank you. Yes, I remember 2020 all too well! Trouble is, I keep expecting that to happen every day, leading to much disappointment - which of course this forum understands.

But I mean for realz! Trying to understand how the new lines might impact the share price in the next few years, realistically.

Does anyone here anticipate a doubling of the share price by FYE 2026? Asking for a friend…..

Please go ahead and sell those calls then! 😜

Thanks for posting. Good clip, worth watching.

Loans and deposits are inextricably linked

As a longtime Relationship Manager for community banks, I don’t understand how SVB could make a high concentration of loans to start-ups. Banks typically require a solid track record of profitability supported by CPA reviewed or audited statements, and collateralized by assets with values...

Me too Willow, me too. Sigh.

What is a cross top?

Best wishes Gene!

And time, you really need time on your side.

It has not aired in the Bay Area as yet

So, the unaccounted for cars on ships and in storage are just sent to where there seems to be demand?

I would like to understand one point. Regarding the cars in transit, have they been ordered? That is, can we assume that a sale is imminent upon delivery? If so, are we selling every car we make?

How about S3XY BST? Model B for the little guy, S for Semi, and cyberTruck. 😂

Back to earnings for a minute, what was it that caused the reduced ASP? Is it FX related? Sorry, I missed that part of the discussion.

I have not heard of this before. I wonder if I have Tesla components in my little RAVioli!

I vote for this option.

Your original question was a good one and certainly relevant to the investor thread.

It’s not always bad life choices. It’s not about whether kids can pay or not, it’s a blanket forgiveness. There is no test for ability to pay that I know of. My oldest has med school debt up the wazoo and he’ll take a $10k reduction though it won’t matter. My youngest has a balance of about...

Yes, I was thinking the same. My son hasn’t had a payment since early in the pandemic and has been waiting for forgiveness (and here I’m a banker 🤦🏻‍♀️). But if payments were to resume at some point it would be money taken out of the economy.

Probably just relaxing and recharging!

Haha I’m struggling with the same thing. I have less than 400 shares but have had them for so long almost the whole thing would be LT capital gain. Just hate to pay that! I do think if you are selling to invest in TSLA your gains will be better in the long run.

I would say the number one rule of options should be KNOW THYSELF. Every trader needs to understand their own risk tolerance and act accordingly. Options trading is not for everybody.

Just curious…..for those that are buying shares today, that will not be settled by the record date of 8/17, what happens to those shares after the split? How can they not split? You can’t have one share trading for $9xx post split. Wondering if the record date really matters.

Weekend OT…… Just caught up with all the weekend posts. I really enjoyed all the retirement discussions - there are as many different perspectives on this as there are posters! It is amazing how much shareholder value Elon has created for his shareholders. Truly amazing. I came to Tesla much...

I would think, when getting to retirement age, the thing to do would be to liquidate enough to establish a reliable income stream. At that point you can’t really have your entire net worth tied up in a volatile stock, no matter how much you believe in it.

I think I had to go through Sawyer’s post to locate Elon’s response.

So very sad. Condolences to you and your family OrthoSurg.
